Hi,
Hi,

I have installed Samba4 and the home share functionality is not working.

Samba version: 4.0.1
OS: Debian Squeeze
Kernel: 2.6.32-5-amd64

The smb.conf:
[global]
         workgroup = TESZT
         realm = TESZT.HU
         netbios name = FILESERVER
         server role = active directory domain controller
         server services = s3fs, rpc, nbt, wrepl, ldap, cldap, kdc,
drepl, winbind, ntp_signd, kcc, dnsupdate
         load printers = no
         printing = bsd
         printcap name = /dev/null
         show add printer wizard = no
         disable spoolss = yes
         log level = 3
         syslog = 3
         syslog only = yes
         logon path =
#       logon home = \\fileserver\homes\%U
         logon drive = H:
         logon script = %U.cmd

[netlogon]
         path = /opt/samba4/var/lib/samba/sysvol/fileserver.teszt.hu/scripts
         read only = No

[sysvol]
         path = /opt/samba4/var/lib/samba/sysvol
         read only = No

[homes]
         path = /home
         read only = no

After a net use h: /home command on client I get this:
System error 53 has occured. The network path was not found.

The user I try: Administrator and the client OS is Windows XP Pro.
I think the rights on the server are ok.
When I try to set the home for Administrator in AD I get the answer:
The system could not create the startfolder (\\fileserver\homes\Administrator),
because can't find path.

Is there anybody who can use this functionality?

Please help.

Thanks for the replies.

Samba 4.0.x has two operation modes:
1. Active directory domain controller
2. Member or standalone server (or classic (NT4 style) domain controller)

2. behaves the same way (regarding shares) as Samba 3.x.y
1. has some limitation in this regard, for example the missing home metashare (in 3.x.y you shouldn't specify a path as it would be deduced based on the connected users home directory)

You could emulate a behavior similar to the 3.x.y one with the AD mode if you specify hide unreadable = yes and set the folder rights for each home directory accordingly.

As a sidenote: 4.0.1 is quite old, especially if you want to run your AD DC as a fileserver at least 4.0.4 is recommended.
